Fancy paper, pretty ribbons Wrap each present that is new And the sounds of this good season fills the night We'll light a fire, send seasons greetings We'll sing a song of Yule There's nothing wrong but this year Christmas isn't right Oh it's a beautiful day We'll give thanks and we'll pray For every blessing and the dreams that came true Oh it's a beautiful night But I can't wait for first light When the sky will shine a different kind of blue Snow still falling, friends are calling Bringing laughter and good cheer Wine is flowing and another year's gone by Nothing's changed but life keeps changing Some say hello, some say goodbye It's the memories that keep me warm tonight Oh it's a beautiful day We'll give thanks and we'll pray For every blessing and the dreams that came true Oh it's a beautiful night But I can't wait for first light That's when the sky will shine a different kind of blue This year Christmas isn't Christmas without you How am I supposed to let you go When you're the only thing I've ever known You're the reason that I keep holding on Now who's strong and who's afraid Tomorrow won't be yesterday Tomorrow just can't be like yesterday Fancy paper, pretty ribbons Promise me you'll come home soon 'Cause Christmas isn't Christmas without you Oh Christmas isn't Christmas without you
